Inside a conventions manga room and it hit me how most of us skip the translators notes

I was at a small con in Denver this weekend looking through their manga section. Noticed how many people flip past the first couple pages where they explain the honorifics and cultural stuff. Does anyone actually read those or are we all just pretending to know what -chan means?

Ha, I definitely read em but then forget the kanji meanings five minutes later.

Feel you on that, I always skim them then feel bad about it later.
